    When I watch YouTube videos of turret presses sizing rifle cases I notice some flexing of the turret head, even in some of the very expensive units. This is not good for accurate target or hunting ammo as it no doubt affects runout, but for speeding up operations in loading pistol stuff or mass producing plinking ammo for your AR they would be a great addition to any bench.

    Yes I no there is some flex with the head on most turret presses.the redding t7 I think is supposed to be the cadilac of the turrets in the upper price range.just wandering how the new all american 1 was comparing to the t mag units.its use would be mainly for pistol rds.

    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    . Robinhood if I decide to take the leap you can bet I will post up my thoughts...friend has the tmag 2 version seems to suit him allright he is making some good ammo with it for rifle..223, 6.5, 308
    Been saving a few bucks for the redding t 7 and seen the all american for about 200 less on sale was reason for asking... well maybe 150 cheaper...
